Pete, I've worked around this problem (so far anyway) by pinning my Xorg back to the hardy version, following the apt-pinning howto at: http://www.howtoforge.com/a-short-introduction-to-apt-pinning
The -t argument to apt-get didn't seem to work quite as described, so I ended up with a very verbose /etc/apt/preferences which I've uploaded at http://cjb.ie/apt-preferences.txt I then proceeded with apt-get update apt-get install xserver-xorg and discovered one dependency problem, where apt complained that xserver-xorg-driver-video-ati and xserver-xorg-driver-video-radeon had a conflict concerning a manpage, even though it was going to remove the latter package. I resolved this with: dpkg --force-all -r xserver-xorg-driver-video-radeon apt-get -f install I hope this helps you!
